Dried describes the processed state of a food from which water has been removed using the sun, an oven, or a dehydrator. As moisture decreases, the ingredient keeps longer and its aroma becomes more concentrated. Fruits, vegetables, herbs, and spices are processed this way.
Where It's Used
“Soften sun-dried tomatoes in warm water and chop them into the salad.”
